This week we’re hanging out withBaron Vaughn. He talks to us about growing up in Vegas, performing arts school, race construction, privilege, double consciousness, and how attractive scapegoating can be. We also get into what parents of color have to do/say to keep their kids safe, as well as the myth of fatherless black children. For more on that, FOR SURE check out Fatherless.

You can also see him on Grace & Frankie and the new Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return, and listen to his new albumBlaxistential Crisis. Or if you live in LA, check outThe New Negroesat UCB Franklin!!

We’re late this week, but we have an amazing guest to make up for it! Rhea Butchershowed up to talk to us about literally everything! We dive into racism, sexism, Charlottesville, baseball, rape jokes, sobriety, and how to own up to our mistakes and “be a man.”

The biggest things we learned this week are how to handle people with love and compassion, even when they’re wrong? and how to attend a protest without creating a riot.

By the way, if you have any questions about sobriety or think you might have a problem with drugs or alcohol, PLEASE reach out to us. We are not professionals, but would be more than happy to share our experiences with you on an individual basis and help you find support in your local area.

We had a couple of guests fall through this week and decided to keep it short and sweet. With all of the crazy racist shit going on in the country, we want to speak out, but also think you should be listening to the folks more directly affected and want to save some time in your week to do so.

Check out some POC/LGBTQ/Female produced podcasts and independent news sources. We’ll be back next week with someone who can speak to us from personal experience.

Today we’re talking to Jake Millan about how to save the planet. Jake works for a VERY famous car company that can’t be named for legal reasons? but let’s just say they’re the largest American electric car company and everybody wants one.

Buckle up, cause we’re talking sustainability! This means solar vs hydro, composting, reducing waste, and how the US military is a driving force in progressive energy and reversing climate change. Who knew?!

You can follow Jake on Twitter and send any questions for him to ourcontact page. We’re definitely going to have him back on, so please hit us up!

We’re joined by comedian, author, and stripperKasey Koopthis week to tell us how she became a sex worker, how she got sober, and how she balances the two. Fair warning: we talk a lot about sex, porn, masturbation, and all that good stuff? it gets a bit graphic. But we also get super deep and fairly dark, discussing fears, addiction, self sabotage, and hitting rock bottom emotionally.

By the way, if you have any questions about sobriety or think you might have a problem with drugs or alcohol, PLEASE reach out to us. We are not professionals, but would be more than happy to share our experiences with you on an individual basis and help you find support in your local area.
